How to play

Bruiser Build specific
  1. As Lucian playing Bruiser build - you need ot adapt to an enemy team and to the game! Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. Are they heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  2. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Tips and Tricks

Riot
  1. For optimal burst, try to combine Relentless Pursuit into Piercing Light.
  2. Ardent Blaze actually explodes in a star pattern. Try to line it up so the spokes hit enemy champions.
  3. Once you have chosen an angle for The Culling, you cannot change it. Pick your moment well!
  4. Because of Lightslinger, Lucian benefits more from Attack Damage than he does from Attack Speed.
